tonight i had my best friend, julie's baby shower! i think everyone had a good time (or at least i hope!) and it was great to celebrate jude's upcoming arrival in december. i am so tired. for the past two days all i've done is baby shower stuff. kelly has been so kind and watched hunter so i could get everything done. i had a fabulous time making all the decor...i can't wait to make everything for hunter's 1st birthday! so much fun. i love making things. anyways, here's the shower action-
favors and a sign up sheet for guests to write down their email addresses if they want to help bring meals after the baby is born.
a blessing ring. i got the idea from katie. everyone took a sheet of paper and wrote down a scripture, prayer, encouragement or advice for julie. then, i put all the pieces together with ribbon. i think it turned out really cute!
i should've taken this picture after all the gifts had arrived. i made the baby boy banner and the sign on the chair that said "congratulations julie!"
cupcakes. they were yummy. i made them and then stuck the elephants on toothpicks to add a little flare. : )
desserts. lots of calories tonight! if you look at the wall you can see another banner i made with the baby's name on it. i also made little cards saying what all the desserts were.

I'm so impressed. The decorating was very cute. I cute favors that your and Cheryl planned sure work out and fit right in.
The party looked great. I would have loved to be there and sample all the dessert. They looked so good! Tell Julie she looked so happy. I wish her the best.
